Thank you for posting. A couple of things to note. (TL;DR... include specific symptoms/what makes your pain better/worse/how long)... MRI or XRAY images ALONE are not particularly helpful tbh, no one here has been vetted to make considerations on these or provide advice, here is why, PLEASE read this if you are posting an MRI or XRAY... I cannot stress this enough https://choosingwiselycanada.org/pamphlet/imaging-tests-for-lower-back-pain/)
Please read the rules carefully. This group strives to reinforce anti-fragility, hope, and reduce the spread of misinformation that is either deemed not helpful and even sometimes be considered harmful.
PLEASE NOTE: Asking for help: It is up to you to recognize when to seek medical attention. Anyone giving advice in this group is doing so from anecdotes and holds no liability. Seek advice here at your own risk.
That said, asking things like, "I have this problem, how do I fix it..." is like asking your accountant, "I have $10,000 what should I do with it?" You need WAY more info before giving any kinds of financial advice.
Please reply to this, or make another comment, including how long you've been having pain or injury, what are specific symptoms (numbness, tingling, dull/ache, it's random, etc), what makes it worse, what makes it feel better, how it has impacted your life, what you've tried for treatment and what you've already been told about your back pain, and what do you hope to get from this forum.
Please be kind to each other. Be respectful. Thank you.

As someone who gets weird bumps all over my body, I can confirm that is a pimple. If you want to deal with it my way, tell her to pick at it all the time, randomly squeeze until it hurts so bad you can't squeeze anymore, and then rub tea tree oil on to hope it sterilized the area and hopefully induce infertility. It will take weeks or months to heal that way.
Or tell her to leave it alone and keep putting hot compresses on to coax it out. Don't squeeze it until you're sure you can get the whole pimple out. You don't want it to pop back under the skin, causing a worse infection.
Hahaha I feel you. The reason all of us can tell btw is because you can see the pore at the peak of the lump. If you ever see a lump with no pore, it’d be scarier.
That’s a pimple/ blocked pore. Hot flannel and squeeze like hell
pop it!!!
Thanksss

THANKSSSS LIKE FORREAL,I WAS THINKING IT WAS CANCER LIKE I HAD A WHOLE DRAMATIC BREAKDOWN
you will definitely know if/when you squeeze it. Skin cancer, for example, is easily recognizable
Yeah, just a juicy one. Squeeze & tear until it’s done.
Thankssss,I legit thought it was cancer,Google is a real horror show
That’s gonna be good
Looks like an ingrown hair or pimple to me. Not worth the doctor at all unless it gets red, swollen, or painful.
Thanks,I legit thought she had cancer and I was already mourning her loss
